I guess the path you want is:
Code:
/user/share/themes
So if you're in xterm:
Code:
cd /user/share/themes

I'm a bit lost
I've downloaded a theme and the instructions are unzip, which I've done, then copy folder to root/user/share/themes on phone

Got that but when I look at the phone folders on PC or on phone itself, there are no user, share or theme folders

Cheers
Dave

I guess you're connecting via USB/Mass Storage Mode - in that case you'll only ever see stuff under /home/user/MyDocs.

You probably want to unzip it from the command line (xterm) - and you'll probably want to install the command line zip/unzip app too

Another way to get to the folder is by installing
1- Filebox
2- Rootsh for root priveleges.

Then open filebox and search for /usr/share/themes/your_theme

Hope this helps.

Regards
